Chapter 192: Dumping Suspicion
Li Su's words are very immodest, and the content is all to praise himself, and he praises him very hard.
However, the taste was different in Dou Fu's ears.
Before tonight, he really hadn't inquired much about Li Su's details, and all he heard were some well-known rumors in Chang'an City, which caused thunder to shake the sky, offered national policies, and cured smallpox...... That's nothing more than that, and in his opinion, there is nothing remarkable about it.
But His Majesty visited him twice, invited him to be an official three times, and discussed with him about the strategy, which is very unusual, if he is telling the truth, then this son is not only Jian Zai in the emperor's heart, in contrast, his status as a young master of the Sipin Dali Temple is probably not as high as Li Sugao.
A person who is similar to a passer-by in the eyes of His Majesty to judge a person whom His Majesty values very much, this kind of thing is simply a trick to death.
Thinking of this, Dou Fu's gaze wandered, but the smile on his face could no longer be squeezed out.
The two servants pulled the clamp on the left and the right, looked at Dou Fu, and waited for him to give an order, but Dou Fu's expression was uncertain, and he never dared to open his mouth to order the punishment.
He only felt that he was standing on the edge of the cliff now, and he could protect himself by taking a step back, and taking a step forward was an abyss from which he could never recover.
Seeing him hesitating, Li Su couldn't help but smile and said: "I can see it, you are skeptical of my words, in fact, you don't have to be so embarrassed, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to make this matter a big case, and if you can't say it, you will also use a punishment to dig out the main envoy behind me, even if I don't know who the main envoy is, you can kindly remind me, such as the ...... of King Wei."
"Since you are suspicious, it is better to follow your plan, use the punishment first, you can see if I can recruit you, and you can also bet on your own fate in the future."
Dou Fu pursed his lips and said nothing, his cheeks twitching uncontrollably.
He found it a foolish decision to allow His Highness the Crown Prince to do this. After only a few words in prison, he put himself in a dilemma.
In contrast, Li Su's expression became leisurely and lazy, fearlessly looking at the struggling Dou Fu, with a playful look in his eyes.
The silence did not last long, and hurried footsteps could be heard outside the cell. The voice was coming towards the prison where Li Su was, and Li Su and Dou Fu were moved at the same time.
Li Su muttered, "What's wrong with the people in Dali Temple? Why do you like to visit the door in the middle of the night? ”
Dou Fu's face became ugly, and he hurriedly waved his hand, and the torture instrument on Li Su's hand was quickly removed.
The footsteps were fast, and it didn't take long to reach Li Su's prison door.
A middle-aged man in a scarlet official robe led four or five servants to stand outside the prison door.
Through the dim firelight, Dou Fu recognized the person, his expression became more and more shocked, and after staying for a moment, he hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Xiaguan Dou Fu." I have seen Sun Zhengqing. ”
The surname of the person who came, the name of Fujia, is the Zhengqing of Dali Temple, and also the top boss of Dou Fu.
Sun Fujia looks like he is in his forties, with a upright face, clear eyes, and a faint official authority in his gestures, this person is a famous minister. And there is a great honor, he is the first in the martial arts five-year imperial examination. The first well-documented champion in history, who is valued by Gaozu and today's Majesty, is entrusted with the position of Zhengqing of Dali Temple.
In the middle of the night, the Zhengqing and Shaoqing of Dali Temple gathered together, just for a common man who had just fought in Dongshi, this kind of scene cannot but be said to be very weird.
"Dou Shaoqing is exempt. The official couldn't sleep at night, and his heart was haunted by complicated and trivial matters, so he went into the prison to inspect it, and heard the voice of someone here, and came to see it curiously......" Sun Fujia stroked his green beard without smiling. showed a curious look: "It's late at night, Dou Shaoqing is ...... Arraignment? ”
Li Su's cheeks twitched a few times, and he turned his head to look away.
Dou Fu's expression was extremely embarrassed and ugly, as soon as you entered the prison, you hurried straight to Li Su's prison door, and you still "couldn't sleep at night", and "trivial matters lingered", is this insulting my IQ?
"Today, Hu Andong was beaten in the East Palace, this son is one of the perpetrators, and the lower officials came to this case, wanting to try him to see if there is anything to gain......
Sun Fujia nodded and praised: "Shaoqing remembers his official affairs and serves the country with a commendable heart......
After a pause, Sun Fujia turned his head and glanced at Li Su in the prison as if he was inadvertent, then looked stunned, squinted his eyes and carefully identified it, and said strangely: "This ...... Could it be that Li Su, the son of Jingyang County, who cured smallpox and created a thunderstorm to help His Majesty recover Songzhou? ”
Li Su smiled bitterly: "Sun Zhengqing is fine, the kid is Li Su, but he is no longer a son of Jingyang County, but a prisoner under the stairs." ”
Sun Fujia shook his head again and again: "Li Xianzi can't be presumptuous, Your Majesty has heard that your lord has heard that the young man is strong, the blood is strong, and it is common to get into trouble, Your Majesty has high hopes for you, and it is a matter of time before you are reinstated...... Hehe, I just don't know that Li Xianzi is in prison again today because ......"
Li Su smiled maliciously at Dou Fu and said, "It's still because of the fight......"
"Oh, hehe, the official said just now, the young man is angry, fighting with people or something...... Okay, don't say more, Dou Shaoqing, you continue to interrogate, and the official will go elsewhere to take a look. ”
After speaking, Sun Fujia nodded at Dou Fu, turned a blind eye to the two errand servants who were still carrying torture instruments in the prison, and led the people away.
Dou Fu's face was pale, Sun Fujia's words just now seemed to be chatting, and there were only a few words, but there were too many meanings in these words.
First of all, it is very certain that Li Su is valued by His Majesty, not to mention the meaning of Sun Fujia's words, just look at the fact that he hurriedly came to prison for Li Su in the middle of the night, you can know Li Su's status in His Majesty's heart.
Secondly, Sun Fujia left after saying these words, the meaning is very obvious, there is a kind of you move him to try.
Dou Fu finally understood that the task given to him by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince could not be completed, not only could it not be completed, but he himself was in trouble.
Glancing at Li Su complicatedly, Dou Fu gritted his teeth and said with a gloomy face: "Go!" ”
The two servants put away the torture instruments and followed Dou Fu away without saying a word.
On the second day, after the court meeting dispersed, Li Shimin summoned Sun Fujia, the secretary of Dali Temple, in the Ganlu Hall of Taiji Palace.
"Dali Temple Shaoqing Dou Fu interrogated Li Su in the middle of the night?" Li Shimin frowned.
"Yes, the minister hurried into the prison after hearing the news from the jailer, and found that Dou Fu was waiting to be tortured by Li Su......"
Li Shimin's expression was full of disappointment, he pursed his lips and looked at the scorching sun outside the hall, and was silent for a long time.
Sun Fujia stood aside respectfully with his head down.
After a long time, Li Shimin sighed: "I know, you can step down." ”
Sun Fujia retreated, and when he retreated to the front of the palace, he suddenly paused, and said hesitantly: "Your Majesty, that Li Su is still in prison, is this case ......?"
"Humph! The little baby has been in trouble one after another, and after he is not treated, it will become more and more serious, let him continue to squat in prison! ”
Sun Fujia was awe-inspiring and hurriedly retreated.
After Sun Fujia left, Li Shimin's tense expression collapsed, revealing deep disappointment and fatigue.
"Cheng Qian, you really did it secretly......"
This matter is a litmus test, and it is a pity that Li Shimin did not try to make gold.
The subordinate officials of the East Palace robbed the people's daughters and were beaten, and the prince, as the prince, did not say that he upheld justice, but secretly poisoned the people who upheld justice, is such a person suitable to be the monarch of the next generation? What would the prosperity of two generations of monarchs look like if they were in his hands?
This question popped up in Li Shimin's mind for the first time.
…………
East Palace.
Li Chengqian got up very early, and it was already noon after Kong Yingda had given the morning class, and Li Chengqian was still writing on the bookcase what Kong Yingda had just taught.
As the crown prince, Li Chengqian is quite qualified for now, and there are not too many absurd and unscrupulous problems, at least on the surface.
After the schoolwork, Li Chengqian still has to go to the Taiji Palace, Li Shimin will pick out a few representative recitals for him, let him try to deal with state affairs, if the handling is biased, Li Shimin will carefully teach him, tell him how to deal with this matter, what is the reason and reason for such a treatment......
In short, Li Chengqian's schedule is full, and every day is very busy.
However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who is so busy, can still spare time in his busy schedule to go hunting and rob the people's daughters, which shows that time is only reserved for those ...... Prepared?
Li Chengqian's expression in writing is very serious, coupled with his handsome appearance, as well as the identity of the prince of the Tang Dynasty, the whole picture is enough to make thousands of infatuated girls scream madly.
The perfect picture didn't collapse until a eunuch entered the palace.
After the eunuch's report, Li Chengqian's expression quickly became gloomy.
Wang Zhi was snatched away, and Dou Fu was scared away by Sun Fujia.
After yesterday's incident, Li Chengqian's two-move chess move, one inside and one outside, completely failed, and Li Chengqian's mood suddenly became very bad.
"Yes, it is said that the number of people in the dark alley of Dongshi yesterday is not clear, it is not like the military general's family, the Cheng family and the Niu family will not raise this kind of subordinates, their skills are very strong, and they snatched Wang Zhi away in three or two clicks, I don't know what the way to ......"
Li Chengqian fell into deep thought: "It's not the Cheng family, it's not the Niu family...... The eldest grandson's family is even more impossible, my uncle won't do this, so who will it be? ”
The eunuch tentatively asked, "Could it be the ...... of the Firearms Bureau?"
Li Chengqian shook his head: "The firearms bureau is full of civil officials and craftsmen, and the Jinwuwei soldiers outside will not leave the camp without an order......
After pondering for a long time, Li Chengqian quietly hooked: "Lone remembers, Li Su has a very close relationship with the fief in Dongyang, Taiping Village, right?" ”
The eunuch's eyes lit up and he nodded again and again.
Li Chengqian smiled happily: "That's right, that's right, yes, the Heavenly Imperial Family actually has a good sister who turns her elbow out." ”
